NVQ Level 3 Electrical Training Courses Online - Get Your ECS Gold Card With XS Training

Описание: Founded in 2011, XS Training Ltd have helped many, many electricians through their NVQ Level 3 Electrical training and onto attainment of their ECS Gold Card and JIB Grading.

This video explains more about the NVQ Portfolio building process and the other specialised courses that XS Training now offer.

Hi guys, it’s Erin, I’m here today at XS Training. Now, they deliver online electrical training courses and, it’s online, which means it’s accessible worldwide, which means XS Training can help you no matter where you are.

“I’m Jamie Gibbs and I’m senior manager here at XS Training – and we deliver NVQ’s online. The two NVQ’s that we offer are 2357 and 2346 at the moment – which is for experienced learners that have got either less or more than five years experience on the tools.


The benefit of coming and learning with ourselves is it can all be done online. So there’s no traveling, you don’t need to travel to a centre as such. You can do it all online based from site – and we use Zoom where you put your camera (phone) on a tripod and you can be working away and we can ask questions and assess the worker from home. So it works really well for us as a centre so we can assess (the learner remotely).

The end goal for the process of someone coming on and doing an NVQ with ourselves is to then move on and do an AM2 or AM2E, which is a practical assessment. Then at the end of it they will get a JIB Gold Card which is a card that represents them as an electrician – and when they’re out on site it will tell the employer or contractor what qualifications they’ve done and what standard they’re at.

The NVQ process consists of building a Portfolio of photographic evidence. So the learner on site will photograph themselves doing various jobs, upload them to a Portfolio builder we use which is called OneFile – and then us as assessors will go on and see those photos and see if they’re OK or not. Then we’ll do recordings of observations and professional discussions. They will also be upload to the portfolio and City & Guild will come in and have a look at various portfolios that we’ve done and make sure that they’re externally verified.

So, what we do is we do assessor built portfolios, so we do the write ups for them (the learner). They still have to collect the good quality photographs with them in, they need to rename them and upload them to the system, have the discussion, the assessment, but then we as assessors will then do the write up for them.

What’s good about this way of doing their NVQ is that the employer doesn’t lose their operative for a long period of time. Because they’re taking photographs as they’re doing the job and then uploading those photographs on an evening, they’re doing the professional discussions or observations on an evening or at the weekend, so it’s not taking any time away from the employer.

The process is really simple and the fact that you can do it from the comfort of your own home by taking photographic evidence and then doing the professional discussions on an evening is a huge benefit.

(As well as online NVQ training courses) we’re currently running the City & Guild 3667 copper and fibre optics data communications course at the local centre for XS Training (in Wakefield West Yorkshire). A four-day course for the copper and a four day course for the fibre and that’s all run inhouse with theory and practical sessions.

We also have XS Training Academy which consists of various online course that we deliver. So the learner will go on, do the online course - which is watching various videos, going through various products and slides and interactive learning platforms.
